"Is it true...?" Margarita, Adrian's mother's voice were as gentle as how she remembers it to be even though it is already husky because of falling so ill.She had just been confined to the hospital again. How ironic could it be that just after the announcement of her engagement that she gets an attack again.Gabrielle looks at the ageing woman in front of her. The grace in her face had long been gone because of the strong radiation she is receiving from her chemotherapy. The glint in her eyes are now replaced with weakness and sadness unlike when she was younger and she'd have fun with them-Ade, her and his sisters. They were lilke siblings, she has always been one of them. This woman has always been there for her that she could even call her mom. Shakily, Margarita reaches out for her hand."Is it... decided by your dad..?" She asks looking at her face. She couldn't let her worry like this and she knows she couldn't lie to her as well."It is... because of me? Or Ade?""N-no!!! No,

Chapter 11

The alcohol she was drowning herself into runs smoothly down her throat as she gulps the shot of tequila in one go. She is at the bar. Alone.Hating her life. Hating what she can't do. Hating everything that had broken and continuously breaking her apart. Her finger where a stick of cigarette lies in between moves in a circular motion around the rim of the newly served shot glass of tequila in front of her as her mind once again wanders off to the bitter part of her past.That day when her father announced that her mother is no longer with them.10 years ago..."Take a rest, Gab. I know you're tired and upset..." He said before turning to walk out of her hospital room."'Mom... Did she abandon me as well, like you?" She asked with her broken voice. She just couldn't believe that none of her parents were beside her when she opened her eyes."Gabby...""Did she decide to not buy me back like you did? Is money and power more important to her too?""Don't say a word against your mother!

Chapter 12

Gabrielle yawns as she stretches her limbs in the middle of the comfortable bed she's lying on. She can feel the ray of light on her face but the breeze of air she can feel on her skin is too cold that she sluggishly pulls the blanket up to her neck to warm herself.Her eyes are still closed and she had no intention on opening them yet. If she were to choose, she'd rather just sleep and not wake up ever again. After all, apart from the terrible hangover she is starting to feel in her head now, she knows that all the pain will just return to her system if she finally wakes up. She's too exhausted and drained to feel any of those now...Life had been too much to her already. So right now, all she wants is to just sleep and pray that when she wakes up, everything will be different.But fuck life, seriously, none of her prayers seem to be heard as she jolts in surprise as the kettle from somewhere in the room snoozes so loud."Argh!" She grunts throwing herself back to the cozy bed she's

Chapter 13

Marching her way out of his flat, Gabrielle quickly pulls up the black dress from her knees up to cover her cold naked body as she heads to the door."Idiot!" she grits her teeth as her knuckles turn white clenching it into a fist. She can feel her face heating up because of anger. God! She doesn't usually feel this much anger towards another person to the point that she really wants to punch his face if not murder him."Breathe Gab..." she closes her eyes tightly as she inhales before grabbing her stilettos and briefly looking around for her pouch."Stupid idiot!" she grits her teeth again not finding anything around Vincent's living room.She's already on the verge of screaming and stomping her feet in frustration when she noticed his car keys hanging on the hook on the wall just beside the main door.Not looking around, with the heels hanging on her fore and middle hanging on her fore and middle fingers, Gabrielle marches quickly again to the door and without a second thought, gra

Chapter 14

As soon as the doorknob clicked and they got in, Gabrielle allowed herself to slide on the floor due to her horrible hangover, anger and too much exhaustion... but Vincent was quick to catch her fall and carries her to the sofa bed in the living room."Stay here..." he whispers as he was bringing her down, their faces just an inch away. Her intoxicating smell of tequila and expensive perfume together with the natural sweet smell of her skin are all pushing him to stare at her face and lean down to lock her lips with his. But he didn't do that. He knows that the last thing she needs right now is them ending up fighting again after kissing.Like what they always do..."Don't go anywhere." he says combing the locks of her naturally brunette curly hair to the back of her ear."Just stay... here," he says pushing her a little to lean on the sofa, his one arm still wrapped around her neck."With me." he tells her again not leaving her face with his deep penetrating blue orbs as he lets go

He had been all by himself growing up. His father and mother died in an accident, it was not too long ago when his grandfather found him. He is his only heir as his mother appears to be the only child he had. A child he kicked out of his life after she fell in love with Vincent's mechanic father.

A man that any woman, such as the woman in front of him now would run after...It has been 10 years now.He had been twenty, and she had been 18 when he thought he owned the world having her in his life.

Chapter 16

She laughs before she tiptoes, places her warm hand on his stomach and kisses him on the lips to his surprise. If anyone sees them, they would think that they are actually so obsessed with each other. But he knows Gabrielle better, she's purposely doing this just to fuck the woman in front of them up then to pop his bubble after."Here," she places a car key he recognizes as his on his palm."It would be a shame if you send her out with a taxi. Dropped by here just to give your keys back, you know. Thought it would be a shame on my part too if people see you riding a cab yourself just because I took your car this morning." She continues smiling at him before looking at the blonde. If he were to hope, he'd love to think that Gabrielle is a jealous girlfriend, but also knowing how sarcastic and bitchy she could get, Vince won't be surprised if she's just shaming the now poor woman for what she heard from her a while ago."Try and catch up as well, I don't mind. I know you'll return to

"When are you ever gonna leave him alone?" That was the first question she screams at her father's face the moment she marched in to his office with Vincent following her from behind.Gabriel Davis just sips on his coffee as he continues looking out the window over looking the busy city of New York."Why do you still meet with him?! Stop bothering yourself with that swine!" She screams with shaking hands that are both in a fist.Vincent squints remembering how she addressed him in the same way. A swine."There is nothing else he can do that could make me go crazier and that could ruin your name! It's all been done! So just leave him alone!" She continues before quickly wiping the tears that ran down her cheeks.Vincent wanted so much to keep her in his arms, to take the anger and pain away... he wants to be there for her and he wants her to be just his.Hearing the bitterness in her voice makes him mad, knowing that the bitterness is just as much as how she trusted that twat... how mu

Chapter 18

Vincent could only stare at Gabrielle as the plane slowly lands on the middle of what seemed to be an old castle in London.She's never said or spoken even a word since they got into the private jet of her father that has taken them to London. She remained just staring at the window with a very grim expression written all over her beautiful face.He is sitting on the sofa just in front of the reclining chair she is resting on. She had been frighteningly silent all throughout their trip. Her only movemernt involves just her breathing pattern and a few sobs.Now as he looks at her, he can see how much sadness there is in her eyes as she continues to look out the window."Ladies and gentlemen, we are now landing in the Dover castle in England. Please keep your seatbelt fastened until we land safely."The jet shakes a little as it lands in the middle of the vast green grass a few meters away from the palace.Vincent waited for the plane's engine to finally stop as he stares at the unmovin

The skies are of combination of fuchsia and orange now, sorme part of it is of deep blue like his eyes that keep on checking on his time before scanning the whole of the garden in quest to find a shadow of that one special person everybody in the reception are waiting for.It is almost ten past the timing now... but he feels as if he's been standing here for a year already. What if she doesn't show up?!
